PHOENIX — The Democratic primary in Arizona ’s 3rd Congressional District still remains too close to call and could be headed for a recount.
Ansari’s lead was 89 votes on Friday, a margin of just 0.21 percentage points and within the range of an automatic recount. Arizona law calls for a recount if the margin is 0.5 percentage points or less.Both candidates sent out statements Saturday and noted the close race. Terán said “we’re narrowing the gap” and “there are still more outstanding ballots to come. We believe every vote matters.”The winner of the Democratic primary will be the favorite in the November election against Republican Jeff Zink to represent the district, which leans Democratic and covers central and southwest Phoenix.
